An early member of the Fauve group, and the Cubist movement, Derain participated in the elaboration of Cubism, but refused to adhere to the movement, turning toward study of the Old Masters. As Douglas Cooper states [see: THE CUBIST EPOCH p.68], "Derain understood the full purport of all that Braque and Picasso were attempting to do (in their Cubist period). But in his own work he followed another line of development." Loose as issued in unsewn sheets in cream wrappers. Slight toning to portfolio vellum. Orig. quarter vellum and illustrated cream portfolio, vellum backed. Near fine in very good slipcase.
